Pip combat medic

[dxtr]

I play this alot i think its really good.
However, the "penalty" from being in the blast radius of ur potion launcher is really annoying.
Im okay with the self damage when ur trying to kill someone, but at least remove it when healing an ally because when im close to an ally and heal them i take 200 unnecessary damage and its just preventing me from doing my job.

This hasnt been an issue with me, there is a card that lowers the damage though if you really need it

Stand further back?

Yeah i know ive considered it already but it just feels wrong to have to waste loadout slots so that i dont get punished for doing my job

You do realize you can shoot while moving, right?

use sturdy card loadout, its not a waste of space. Pip has the highest self damage AFAIK higher than Drogoz and BK who use explosives (unless Hirez changed that and I don't know)

Also, I haven't tested it but does gift giver card affect combat medic?

You are completely missing the point.
Besides that being a stupid question, not being able to move while shooting isnt my problem at all.
And i think you already realised it although it took you sometime but you still gotta stick to your guns because "saying someone else is right on the internet is a shame to your entire family" and all that.
I would repeat what i said before but i think its easy to understand. If you need any further responses from me, either re-read my first reply or come up with a better argument.

Still feels like a penalty to me but yeah for now (and probably forever) thats the only solution.
Also, i havent tested it either but it might be okay.

......

Your issue is the self-damage, you stand a bit back and you won't get hurt.

You are making a big deal over something simple to solve, hence why I made my "stupid question".

And you also have Clayboy's solution.

Sturdy is not a penalty IMO 1-2 point max is enough (as a Pip that usually got killed by self damage cause some flankers decide to play in-your-face)

I never had a problem with self damage and I sometimes take self damage on purpose to kill someone. You shouldn't be shooting at the ground close to yourself and your aim needs work if you need to shoot the ground to heal.
